Ethiopia Travel GuideINTRODUCTION Located in Eastern Africa, Ethiopia is a landlocked country situated in the Horn of Africa. Ethiopia is bordered by Eritrea to the north, Sudan to the west, Kenya to the south, Somalia to the east, and Djibouti to the northeast. Its capital is Addis Ababa.  Although most people conjure up images of poverty and famine when they think of Ethiopia, the country is becoming more and more accessible and tourist friendly each year. From the festivals of Meskal and Timkat, the week long pony treks in the Bale Mountains, the world heritage city of Harar, the Danakil Depression and the ancient cities of Gondor, Aksum and Lalibela, Ethiopia is a magical place to spend a few weeks.
